Abstract Here, a distributed multi‐body dynamics model of high‐speed train (HST) with actuator faults is established. Based on this detail model, a non‐singular terminal sliding mode control method is designed for HST distributed fault‐tolerant control, and the stability of the proposed controller is proved strictly. Considering the high uncertainty of the distributed dynamics model, a radial basis function neural network is introduced to approximate the system uncertainties. Then a universal fuzzy system is proposed to eliminate the chattering problem from sliding mode controller in train control, which further improves the comfort of the train. Finally, numerical simulations are carried out using data from CRH380B train, and model reference adaptive control (MRAC) and adaptive sliding mode control are also tested under the same condition for performance comparison. The results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed controller. Compared with existing MRAC, the root mean square of the speed and position tracking error are reduced by 23.4% and 52%, respectively.
